PENSACOLA, Fla. — A couple was
charged Friday with trying to sell their
2-month-old baby for $30 in a store
parking lot, authorities said.
Robert G. Ellingson, 23, approached two
people in the PetSmart parking lot and
offered them a beer. When they refused, he
offered to sell his child, Escambia County
Sheriff's officials said.
"At first they thought it was a joke,"
sheriff's spokesman Glenn Austin told the
Pensacola News Journal. "But then the
mother yelled to the group that they were
trying to sell the baby. And one of them
called us."
Ellingson and Maghen Duvala, 25, the
baby's mother, were each charged with four
counts of child neglect. They were being
held in Escambia County jail — he for
$27,000 and she for $15,000. It was not
immediately known if they had legal
representation. They were expected to make
a first appearance Saturday.
The Department of Children & Families
took custody of the baby, whose name was
not released.
Authorities said the couple also tried to
sell their baby in a bank parking lot a
few blocks away an hour earlier. They are
each charged separately for that incident
by Pensacola police with one count of
child neglect.

It's so sad when addiction means more than
your own children. I will never
understand it. My neighbors across the
street are getting a divorce because her
husband is a drunk and she suspects he
likes to sniff the magic dust a little too
often. It is so sad. He just got arrested
for drunk driving last week. I feel so
sorry for their kids. They are 3 and 7.
They have been married for 16 years. It's
just so sad to me.

I thought this was going to be a cute pic
of Finn with a price sticker on his
forehead or something.
Boy, was I ever wrong.
This is sickening. People like that
shouldn't be allowed to have children. End
of story.

I honestly thought the same thing... a
picture of Finn with a price sticker.
I hope they never get their child back.
The child is a prime age for adoption.
Most of those children go in and out of
the foster care system to finally be up
for adoption at around age seven or older.
At that point, it is very difficult to
find good homes.
